Unique Features of NH Hotels

At Avani Palazzo Moscova Milan Hotel, you’ll experience a piece of history; this hotel, designed by architect Giulio Sarti, was originally Milan’s very first railway station. Features like the neoclassical façade and the vault architecture on the underground level remain today as a reminder of this hotel’s historical beginnings.
NH Collection Milano Touring also has a part to play in Milan’s past; it was built by the Touring Club Italiano and on its inauguration, was actually the first hotel in Italy to offer en-suite bathrooms.
This innovative approach to comfort and style is something found in NH Hotels to this day.

If what you're looking is for brief but concise advice on what to do in Milan, you came to the right place.

Many people believe there is not much to see in Milan, however our opinion is completely different. We recommend to start your tour around Milan by visit the Arco de la Pace. Go into the Sempione park just infront of the park and WALK around until you bump into de Sforza Castle. Take your time to go in some of the museums that surround the park. Continue your trip by wondering through the streets that take you to the Piazza del Duomo, where you’ll be able to visit the emblematic Cathedral. While you’re there, you should also visit the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II one of the most beautiful commercial passageways in the world. If you love music as much as we do, you must visit La Scala, a renowned theatre where countless world-famous singers and artists have performed over the last two centuries. And so much more!
